Report of Progressage (Patreon)

Hi everybody!

I am cleaning up (and in some cases animating by hand) the motion capture data on Talia's 2nd animation.  And I am -ROUGHLY- 1/3rd complete on that.  That is not everything, not fingers or facial expressions...  Just the stuff that you get from the raw motion capture data.  I am pleased with her progress thus far.

On Talia's 1st animation, the rendering is on frame 4454.  That is about 72% complete.  Goddamn.

I was looking around on amazon and I saw that the fastest CPU I can get for my 'ol LGA2011 motherboard is an Intel Xenon 2690.  It is $250 and based on benchmarking sites it would be about 69% faster than what I currently use.  I think after I get Lightwave2020 I should set my sights on one of them.  Don't forget LW2020 should also render somewhat faster but I doubt it will be anywhere close to 69% faster.  We shall see when it comes out later today (right after monkeys fly out of my butt).

More to come.
